HOUMA - A shooting in an RV park wounded a 61-year-old woman in the foot tonight, her husband said.

Houma Police are still investigating the incident, which occurred at about 10:30 p.m.

Dianne Hebert was asleep in her trailer in the 100 block of RV Court in Houma, just off West Main Street, when three shots were fired outside in quick succession, said her husband, Chris Hebert, 61. He heard her scream in the bedroom.

"She just jumps up. 'I've been shot, I've been shot'," he said.

The bullet appeared to have hit her foot, he said. He heard it fall to the floor as he pulled the blanket from her.

The shooting stemmed from a dispute another resident of the street was involved in, Hebert said. Someone attempted to shoot into the neighbor's RV and the bullets pierced his trailer.
